Common questions
FAQCan I level up in a private server?
No. Private servers block almost all progression and only give you access to a small number of commands. Head into a public server to actually advance your character.
Where do I find Skill Scrolls?
Both the Rare Skill Scroll and the Lost Skill Scroll are hidden somewhere in the game's large map.
When should I join a nation?
You can join one of the five nations — Flame Empire, Wind Realm, Snow Tribe, Terra Kingdom, or Ninja Society — as part of normal play. Joining gives you access to server-wide wars and lets your player-defeat count build toward the Executioner badge series.
How do I get the Struk by Lightning badge?
A naturally spawned lightning strike has to hit you. It is a random world event, so you cannot trigger it deliberately.
